That is a beauty! Wish I could take that class. I just can't sew a decent curve for the love of money. Your piece makes me drool!!!

I second this!! I can't do a curved seam to save me......and being a LEFTY doesn't help either......

Everything is beautiful: the design, the fabrics and the piecing. Love your time consuming border too!

Simply stunning quilt. The fabrics and colors just make it shout "look at me" I too am curious about Ruth Kennedy's technique and what is different

I'd say you learned the lesson well, fantastic job of applique and I love your fabrics too, especially that sashing fabric. WOW.
